Newport High-Density Laser Diode and TEC Controller Series, Models 8008/8016/9008/9016 Features Complete System Controller for 8 or 16 Channel Applications EDFA Pumping or DWDM Signal Sources Outputs Configured for Either Floating or Common Anode Type LD Package Styles IEEE-488 (GPIB) and RS-232C Interfaces Description The Models 8008, 8016, 9008 and 9016 Modular Controllers expａnd on Newport’s modular laser diode controller concept to meet the higher channel densities found in Dense WDM (DWDM) applications and 2-D VCSEL arrays where all the lasers have similar electrical configurations. The eight or sixteen bays accept an array of LDD, TEC, and LDD/TEC combo modules. The mainframe automatically detects which module is installed in each bay and displays the system configuration on a large LCD screen. A sophisticated processor provides enhanced system control and data collection capabilities. GPIB/IEEE-488 and RS-232C interfaces are included with the High-Density Laser Diode Controller Models for complete remote control and data collection. Modules 8605.16C and 8610.16C: The 8600C Series Combo LDD/TEC modules are designed for use in communication applications and have an internal function generator for testing systems. The user only needs to program the frequency, Imax, and Imin to modulate the laser diode output. Triangle, sine or square (50% duty cycle) waveforms are available from 200 Hz–300 kHz. This range of frequencies meets today’s low frequency single-tone and high data rate test requirements for datacom and telecom. Module 8350: A 40 Watt Temperature Controller Module, the Model 8350, can meet your most demanding TE cooling needs. Complete characterization of ITE, VTE and the sensor input is possible, making the 8350 module ideal for complete characterization of telecom laser diodes.
